Channel Multiplexer

PN 53681C is a 5-channel multiplexer designed and built for satellite application. Rugged and light weight, it has 5 passbands covering UHF to S-band - a 10:1 frequency range; but, the concept is adaptable to applications allowing for additional channels of differing widths. The design combines evanescent mode filters and high Q-factor lumped components into a pseudo-elliptic complementary combining network, resulting in low-losshigh-isolation performance with wide, spurious-free stop bands and high power capability.
